Gilpin Girl: Some interesting comments here; maybe some of them would work best for your strange problem!

Have you thought about agreeing with "Crazy?" I've discovered the easiest way to stop an angry person in his/her tracks is to agree with what they are saying.

Scenario: You are in proximity to "Crazy" between shifts. Approach her with a conspiratorial attitude and whisper excitedly to her: "I found out you are right about Rock Band. They contacted me last night and explained everything. The bad part is that they told me that if we discuss this even once they are going to come after us!"

Then jump back and wait by the door for her to leave!!!

Mostly joking here, but hey, it could work!!!

Does anyone see a downside here??

PS: Have you checked to see if she's related to anyone in the HR dept. or your boss??

I found out that Crazy had a meeting in HR on Friday. The meeting lasted about 10 minutes. After which Crazy got in her car and left. Our department manager told a coworker she no longer worked there. I don't know who asked for the meeting and I don't know if she was fired or quit. To paraphrase a song , "Thank God and Greyhound she's gone." In this case it was a VW Bug.

For those unfamiliar with the song

God I always loved that song.

Gilpin Girl: I'm relieved for you. Please take care for your personal safety, especially now when thoughts of revenge may occur to Crazy.
I'm not suggesting paranoia, just caution!
